TARANQ provides an online platform that enables creators, professionals, brands, businesses, and other users to create and manage profiles, showcase their professional and social-media presence, connect supported social-media accounts, discover creator and brand opportunities, publish or access campaign information, and interact with other users through features made available by TARANQ.

By accessing or using TARANQ, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Service.

By creating an account or using TARANQ, you represent that:

  • the information you provide is accurate and current;
  • you have the legal capacity to agree to these Terms;
  • you will comply with these Terms and applicable laws; and
  • your use of TARANQ will not violate the rights of any third party.

If you use TARANQ on behalf of a company, business, organization, or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to accept these Terms on its behalf.

TARANQ may impose additional eligibility requirements for particular features where required by applicable law or product requirements.

Your TARANQ Account

Certain features of TARANQ require you to create an account.

You are responsible for:

  • providing accurate information;
  • keeping your account information current;
  • maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials;
  • protecting access to your account;
  • all activity conducted through your account, to the extent permitted by law; and
  • promptly notifying TARANQ if you believe your account has been compromised.

You must not:

  • create an account using false or misleading information;
  • impersonate another person or organization;
  • create an account for another person without authorization;
  • attempt to access another user's account;
  • share account credentials in a manner that compromises account security;
  • create multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions or enforcement actions; or
  • use another person's identity or information without authorization.

TARANQ Profiles

TARANQ allows users to create profiles that may contain professional, creator, portfolio, social-media, and other information.

You are responsible for the information you choose to include in your profile.

Information that you intentionally make public may be visible to other TARANQ users and visitors to the TARANQ website.

Depending on the features you use, public profile information may include:

  • name;
  • profile photograph;
  • username;
  • biography;
  • creator category;
  • social-media handles;
  • selected social-media content;
  • follower information;
  • portfolio information; and
  • other information you intentionally publish.

You should not publish information on your public profile that you do not want other people to see.

User Content

“User Content” means information, text, photographs, videos, links, profile materials, portfolio materials, social-media content, applications, submissions, campaign information, and other material that you upload, submit, connect, display, or otherwise make available through TARANQ.

You retain ownership of your User Content, subject to the rights and permissions granted under these Terms.

By submitting User Content to TARANQ, you grant TARANQ a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, format, display, transmit, and otherwise use that User Content solely as reasonably necessary to:

  • operate and provide the TARANQ Service;
  • display your TARANQ profile;
  • provide features requested by you;
  • display content you have chosen to make public;
  • facilitate creator and brand discovery;
  • display campaign and collaboration information;
  • maintain and improve the Service;
  • protect the Service and its users; and
  • comply with applicable law.

This license does not transfer ownership of your User Content to TARANQ.

You may remove User Content from TARANQ through available account functionality, subject to technical limitations, legal requirements, and information TARANQ is otherwise permitted or required to retain.

Your Responsibilities for User Content

You represent and warrant that you have all rights, permissions, licenses, and authorizations necessary to submit and use your User Content through TARANQ.

You must not submit, upload, publish, or otherwise make available content that:

  • infringes another person's intellectual property rights;
  • violates privacy or publicity rights;
  • contains unlawful or fraudulent material;
  • is defamatory or intentionally misleading;
  • contains malicious code;
  • promotes unlawful activity;
  • is threatening, abusive, or harassing;
  • violates applicable law;
  • contains another person's personal information without appropriate authorization; or
  • violates these Terms or applicable TARANQ policies.

TARANQ does not necessarily verify the accuracy, ownership, legality, or completeness of User Content submitted by users.

Social Media Integrations

TARANQ may allow you to connect supported third-party social-media accounts, including Instagram and Facebook.

When you connect an account, TARANQ may access information made available through the applicable platform's APIs and the permissions you authorize.

Depending on the platform and permissions available, this may include:

  • account identifiers;
  • usernames or handles;
  • profile information;
  • profile pictures;
  • follower or audience information;
  • posts and other media;
  • Reels or other supported content;
  • engagement information;
  • analytics and insights;
  • Facebook Page information; and
  • other information permitted by the applicable platform and the permissions you authorize.

For Instagram, TARANQ may use authorized APIs to retrieve information necessary to display selected Instagram posts or Reels, retrieve available follower information, retrieve available insights and analytics, and maintain synchronization with a connected Instagram account.

For Facebook, where supported, TARANQ may allow users to connect their Facebook account and/or an eligible Facebook Page and may retrieve information necessary to establish the connection, identify an eligible Page managed by the user, display the selected Facebook presence, and retrieve available Page information.

TARANQ does not ask you for or store your Instagram or Facebook password.

Your use of Instagram, Facebook, or another third-party platform remains subject to that platform's own terms, policies, and rules.

Third-Party Platform Availability

TARANQ relies in part on third-party platforms and APIs to provide certain integrations.

Third-party platforms may:

  • change their APIs;
  • restrict available information;
  • modify permissions;
  • change access requirements;
  • discontinue features;
  • limit access to data; or
  • suspend or terminate access.

As a result, TARANQ cannot guarantee that every third-party social-media feature or data point will always be available.

TARANQ may modify, suspend, or discontinue a social-media integration where necessary.

Third-party platforms may change or restrict the information available through their APIs, and TARANQ may therefore not always be able to retrieve or display information that was previously available.

Disconnecting Social Media Accounts

You may disconnect a supported social-media account from TARANQ through available account controls or by contacting us.

After disconnection, TARANQ will stop accessing the connected account through the applicable integration, subject to technical limitations and any processing that is required or permitted by law.

Disconnecting an account does not necessarily delete information previously provided directly to TARANQ or information that must be retained for legitimate legal, security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution, or other lawful purposes.

You may separately request deletion of your TARANQ data as described in the Privacy Policy.

Creator and Brand Opportunities

TARANQ is a technology platform that enables creators, brands, businesses, and other users to discover potential creator-brand opportunities and share or access information relating to those opportunities.

Brands and businesses may use TARANQ to publish campaign or collaboration details.

Creators may use TARANQ to discover opportunities and, where the relevant functionality is available, view, express interest in, apply to, or otherwise interact with campaign opportunities.

TARANQ is a platform, not the campaign manager

Unless expressly stated otherwise for a particular service, TARANQ does not manage, execute, supervise, operate, or guarantee the underlying creator-brand campaign.

The actual campaign, collaboration, deliverables, negotiations, approvals, content production, publication, compensation, and other commercial arrangements between a creator and a brand are conducted outside TARANQ and are the responsibility of the parties involved.

TARANQ may provide functionality for displaying campaign information or campaign status.

Displaying a campaign or campaign status on TARANQ does not mean that TARANQ is a party to the underlying campaign agreement.

TARANQ is not responsible for:

  • whether a brand selects a particular creator;
  • whether a creator accepts or completes a campaign;
  • the quality or timeliness of campaign deliverables;
  • negotiations between creators and brands;
  • payment or non-payment of campaign compensation;
  • disputes between creators and brands;
  • cancellation of campaigns;
  • the accuracy of campaign information supplied by users; or
  • the performance of either party under an external collaboration agreement.

Creators and brands are responsible for conducting their own due diligence and entering into appropriate agreements for their collaborations.

Campaign Status Information

TARANQ may allow brands or other authorized users to provide or update information relating to the status of a campaign.

Campaign status information is provided as a platform feature and may be based on information supplied by users.

TARANQ does not guarantee that campaign-status information is complete, current, accurate, or independently verified.

A campaign status displayed on TARANQ should not be interpreted as a guarantee by TARANQ that:

  • the campaign has been completed;
  • a creator has fulfilled their obligations;
  • a brand has fulfilled its obligations;
  • payment has been made;
  • content has been approved;
  • deliverables have been accepted; or
  • the underlying collaboration agreement has been successfully performed.

Payments Between Creators and Brands

At the current stage of the TARANQ Service, TARANQ does not facilitate, process, hold, escrow, or disburse payments between creators and brands for creator-brand campaigns.

Any payment, fee, compensation, reimbursement, or other financial arrangement relating to a creator-brand collaboration is arranged directly between the relevant parties outside TARANQ, unless TARANQ expressly states otherwise for a particular service.

Creators and brands are solely responsible for agreeing upon:

  • compensation;
  • payment schedules;
  • deliverables;
  • invoices;
  • taxes;
  • refunds;
  • cancellations; and
  • other financial terms relating to their collaboration.

TARANQ is not responsible for payment disputes arising from arrangements made directly between creators and brands.

Future Payment and Escrow Services

TARANQ may introduce payment-related functionality in the future, which may include payment facilitation, escrow, transaction protection, or other trust and transaction services.

If TARANQ introduces such functionality, additional terms, policies, fees, payment-provider requirements, verification requirements, and other conditions may apply.

Users will be notified of the applicable terms before using such functionality.

Nothing in these Terms should be interpreted as stating that TARANQ currently provides escrow, payment-processing, or payment-protection services for creator-brand campaigns.

Paid Plans and Subscriptions

TARANQ may offer free and paid plans for creators, businesses, brands, and other users.

TARANQ may offer different plans with different features, usage limits, visibility, verification options, support levels, campaign capabilities, or other benefits.

The currently available plans, features, usage limits, and prices will be displayed on the TARANQ website or within the TARANQ application at the time the relevant plan is offered.

Plan names, features, usage limits, pricing, and availability may change from time to time.

Before purchasing a paid plan, you will be shown the applicable price and material terms.

Where applicable:

  • paid plans may provide access to additional TARANQ features or usage limits;
  • the applicable price will be the price displayed at the time of purchase;
  • applicable taxes may be charged in accordance with law;
  • payments may be processed through third-party payment providers;
  • access to paid features may depend on successful payment; and
  • additional terms may apply to particular paid services.

Subscription renewal, cancellation, refund, upgrade, downgrade, and billing terms will be presented through the applicable subscription or purchase interface where relevant.

TARANQ reserves the right to change plan pricing or features for future purchases or renewals. Where required by applicable law, TARANQ will provide appropriate notice of material changes affecting an existing subscription.

TARANQ does not guarantee that any particular plan, feature, usage limit, or pricing will remain available indefinitely.

Accuracy of Information

You agree to provide accurate and reasonably current information.

You must not intentionally misrepresent:

  • your identity;
  • your professional experience;
  • your creator status;
  • your social-media accounts;
  • your follower count;
  • your audience information;
  • your portfolio;
  • your affiliation with a brand or organization;
  • your business information; or
  • any other material information presented through TARANQ.

Where TARANQ retrieves information from connected third-party platforms, that information may change over time and may not always be immediately synchronized.

Prohibited Activities

You must not use TARANQ to:

  • violate applicable laws or regulations;
  • impersonate another person or organization;
  • create fraudulent profiles;
  • misrepresent your identity or affiliations;
  • provide false or misleading campaign information;
  • manipulate follower, engagement, or other social-media information;
  • infringe intellectual property rights;
  • collect or misuse another user's personal information;
  • harass, threaten, or abuse other users;
  • distribute malware, viruses, or malicious code;
  • interfere with the operation or security of TARANQ;
  • attempt unauthorized access to TARANQ systems;
  • scrape or systematically extract TARANQ data without authorization;
  • reverse engineer or attempt to discover source code except where legally permitted;
  • bypass security, access controls, usage limits, or technical restrictions;
  • use automated systems to access TARANQ in a manner that places unreasonable load on the Service;
  • use TARANQ for unlawful, deceptive, fraudulent, or abusive purposes;
  • upload content that you do not have the right to use; or
  • assist another person in violating these Terms.

Intellectual Property

The TARANQ Service, including its software, design, interface, branding, logos, graphics, text, features, functionality, and other materials provided by TARANQ, is owned by or licensed to Taranq Marketing Ventures (OPC) Private Limited and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Except as expressly permitted by TARANQ or applicable law, you may not:

  • copy;
  • reproduce;
  • modify;
  • distribute;
  • sell;
  • lease;
  • license;
  • publicly display;
  • commercially exploit; or
  • create derivative works from

TARANQ's proprietary materials.

“TARANQ” and associated branding may not be used without appropriate authorization.

Feedback

If you voluntarily provide suggestions, ideas, recommendations, or feedback regarding TARANQ, you grant TARANQ permission to use that feedback without restriction or obligation to compensate you, provided such use does not disclose your personal information in a manner inconsistent with our Privacy Policy.

No Guarantee of Results

TARANQ provides a platform and technology intended to facilitate creator discovery, professional visibility, and creator-brand opportunities.

However, TARANQ does not guarantee:

  • a particular number of followers;
  • engagement;
  • income;
  • brand collaborations;
  • employment;
  • campaign opportunities;
  • business results;
  • audience growth;
  • social-media growth;
  • campaign completion; or
  • any particular outcome from using the Service.

Results depend on many factors outside TARANQ's control.

Third-Party Websites and Services

TARANQ may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, applications, platforms, payment providers, social-media services, and other services.

TARANQ does not control those third parties.

Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms, policies, and agreements.

TARANQ is not responsible for the content, availability, security, performance, or privacy practices of third-party services that TARANQ does not control.

For example, when you connect Instagram or Facebook, your use of those services remains subject to the relevant Meta terms and policies.

Privacy

Your privacy is important to us.

Our Privacy Policy explains how TARANQ collects, uses, stores, shares, protects, and deletes personal information.

By using TARANQ, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy forms an important part of your relationship with TARANQ and should be read together with these Terms.

TARANQ's Privacy Policy describes, among other matters, information collected through user profiles, User Content, Instagram and Facebook integrations, automatic technical information, cookies, data sharing, retention, security, and data deletion.

Account Suspension and Termination

You may stop using TARANQ at any time.

TARANQ may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account or access to all or part of the Service where reasonably necessary, including where:

  • you violate these Terms;
  • you provide materially false or misleading information;
  • your account creates a security risk;
  • your activity involves fraud or abuse;
  • your activity violates applicable law;
  • your activity harms other users or TARANQ;
  • your activity violates applicable third-party platform requirements; required by law; or

TARANQ reasonably determines that suspension or termination is necessary to protect the Service, users, or the public.

Where appropriate and reasonably practicable, TARANQ may provide notice before taking enforcement action.

TARANQ may also remove or restrict access to content that violates these Terms or applicable law.

Effect of Termination

Upon termination, suspension, cancellation, or deletion of your TARANQ account:

  • your right to access the affected TARANQ features may immediately cease;
  • your public profile may no longer be accessible;
  • your connected social-media integrations may be disconnected;
  • User Content associated with your account may no longer be publicly accessible;
  • TARANQ will process deletion of personal information in accordance with its Privacy Policy and applicable law; and
  • certain information may be retained where permitted or required by applicable law, or where reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, enforcement of agreements, or the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

Aggregated and Anonymized Statistics

Termination of your account or cancellation of a subscription does not prevent TARANQ from retaining or using aggregated, anonymized, or otherwise de-identified statistical information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you.

For example, TARANQ may maintain an aggregate count of the total number of users who have registered with TARANQ over the lifetime of the Service and may continue to use such aggregate statistics after individual accounts have been deleted or subscriptions have ended.

TARANQ may use such aggregated and anonymized statistics for legitimate business purposes, including:

  • measuring the growth and performance of TARANQ;
  • internal reporting and analytics;
  • business planning;
  • investor, partner, or stakeholder presentations;
  • public communications;
  • website and product communications;
  • marketing and promotional materials; and
  • communicating aggregate information about the TARANQ community or Service.

Such statistics will not be used to identify you individually and will not be combined with retained personal information for the purpose of re-identifying you.

For clarity, deletion of your personal information does not require TARANQ to delete an aggregate statistical figure that no longer identifies or relates to you as an identifiable individual.

Nothing in this section permits TARANQ to retain or continue using your personal information for marketing merely because an aggregate statistic derived from the Service continues to exist. Personal information will continue to be handled in accordance with the TARANQ Privacy Policy and applicable law.

Service Availability

TARANQ aims to provide a reliable service but does not guarantee that the Service will:

  • always be available;
  • operate without interruption;
  • be completely error-free;
  • be free from security vulnerabilities;
  • remain unchanged; or
  • always support every device, browser, third-party integration, or feature.

TARANQ may perform maintenance, upgrades, modifications, or emergency changes that temporarily affect availability.

Security

TARANQ uses reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information and the Service against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, misuse, or destruction.

However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for protecting your account credentials and promptly notifying TARANQ if you believe your account has been compromised.

The TARANQ Privacy Policy further describes security measures including access controls, authentication mechanisms, secure infrastructure, logging and monitoring, token protection, and security reviews.

Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TARANQ provides the Service on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

To the extent permitted by law, TARANQ disclaims warranties, representations, and conditions that are not expressly stated in these Terms, including implied warranties of:

  • merchantability;
  • fitness for a particular purpose;
  • non-infringement; and
  • uninterrupted or error-free operation.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits a warranty, right, or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TARANQ and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, business opportunities, goodwill, data, or anticipated savings arising from or related to your use of the Service.

This includes losses arising from:

  • third-party platform changes or outages;
  • loss of social-media access;
  • inaccurate information supplied by users;
  • interactions between users;
  • creator or brand collaborations;
  • unauthorized account access;
  • service interruptions;
  • User Content;
  • campaign disputes; or
  • payment disputes between creators and brands.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability to the extent such limitation is prohibited by applicable law.

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless TARANQ, Taranq Marketing Ventures (OPC) Private Limited, and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses arising out of or relating to:

  • your violation of these Terms;
  • your User Content;
  • your violation of another person's rights;
  • your misuse of the Service;
  • your violation of applicable law;
  • your misrepresentation of information;
  • your interactions or agreements with other TARANQ users; or
  • your participation in creator-brand collaborations.

This section applies only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Changes to the Service

TARANQ may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue features of the Service from time to time.

Changes may be necessary because of:

  • product development;
  • security requirements;
  • legal or regulatory requirements;
  • third-party platform changes;
  • technical limitations;
  • business considerations; or
  • other operational reasons.

Where required by applicable law, TARANQ will provide appropriate notice of material changes.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to:

  • TARANQ's services;
  • technology;
  • business operations;
  • legal requirements;
  • third-party integrations; or
  • other relevant circumstances.

When we update the Terms, we will update the “Last Updated” date.

Where appropriate, we may also provide notice through the TARANQ website, web application, email, or other reasonable means.

Where required by applicable law, TARANQ will provide additional notice or obtain any required consent before material changes take effect.

Your continued use of TARANQ after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If you do not agree to updated Terms, you should stop using the Service.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Subject to applicable law and any rights that cannot lawfully be waived or restricted, the courts of Kerala, India shall have jurisdiction over disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or your use of TARANQ.

This is aligned with the governing-law provision in the TARANQ Privacy Policy.

Dispute Resolution

Before initiating formal legal proceedings, you agree to first contact TARANQ and provide a reasonable opportunity to resolve the issue.

Nothing in this section prevents a person from exercising rights or remedies that cannot legally be restricted.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision will be interpreted or modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, where legally permitted.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect.

No Waiver

A failure by TARANQ to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce that provision later.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the TARANQ Privacy Policy and any additional terms expressly applicable to particular TARANQ services or features, constitute the agreement between you and TARANQ concerning your use of the Service.

If there is a conflict between these Terms and specific additional terms applicable to a particular TARANQ feature, the specific additional terms will govern that feature to the extent of the conflict.
